Not sure about this one, but there is another similar script on this thread:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=65824.

There is also a new feature in XBMC that allows you to run multiple frontends off of 1 backend SQL database. See the wiki - you'll need to make sure all of your instances are at a specific SVN Revision to use it.

Thanks!

The last post in that first thread (XBMCSync) has somebody talking about how the script is currently broken with the latest SVN so I'm not sure that would work...

How fast/stable is the SQL database stuff? Does it slow down the library at all?

It is very stable, but it does slow down the XBMC GUI a little bit, because MySQL is natively not as fast as SQLite, and also because the MySQL database is being accessed remotely vs a local access with the SQLite alternative.

Good catch about the sync script being broken. I'm sure it has something to do with the new web server so the api calls might be different.

I've tried out the new MySQL connection and so far I haven't noticed anything worth complaining about in the way of speed vs SQLite. I've been waiting to keep multiple frontends synced for some time so I'm glad this feature has finally be added.
